Recently, the variable sampling intervals (VSI) control scheme in which the length of successive sampling intervals is determined upon the preceding values has been proved t...

Stuart Kauffman and others have proposed Random Boolean networks (RBN) as models of genetic regulation in living cells. Common practice in statistical studies of RBN ensembles has been to sample Boolean rules without explicit concern for their effective connectance . We show that this practice may lead to substantial bias in estimating important dynamical features of the sparselyconnected nets ...
